A second round of indirect talks between the Trump administration and Iranian officials is underway in Geneva, Switzerland. Ahead of the talks, Iran’s Foreign Ministry said it’s willing to discuss limits to its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief, adding that Iran will not accept zero uranium enrichment. On Monday, Iran’s military staged war games in the Strait of Hormuz, as the U.S. Navy steamed a second aircraft carrier strike group toward the Arabian Sea. U.S. officials said on Friday that Trump is considering an attack on Iran that could last for weeks.
Meanwhile, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who’s been pushing for the U.S. to topple Iran’s government, was in Tel Aviv on Monday, a visit he said was to reassure the Israeli people that there’s no gap between President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Iran policy.
Sen. Lindsey Graham: “There are two lines in the water right now. One is a diplomatic line, trying to find a way to end this regime diplomatically that will advance our national security interest. The other line is the military option. I think President Trump is looking for which line can catch the biggest fish. The bottom line is, we’re into weeks, not months, in terms of decision-making.”
